STRUCTURE:BODY, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, EXTERIOR LIGHTING
THIRD BRAKE LIGHT RUST, DUE TO POOR SEAL AND DESIGN. COST HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS IN REPAIRS, WHICH IS SILENT UNTIL THE LIGHT FALLS OUT AND DAMAGE IS BEYOND A SIMPLE REPAIR. I WAS ALERTED TO THIS BY THE AUTO BODY SHOP, THAT TOLD ME IT WAS COMMON IN JEEP LIBERTY, AND DID MY RESEARCH. WE ARE THE ONLY OWNERS, AND IT HAS GOOD SERVICE RECORDS. SPEND HALF OF IT'S TIME PARKED IN A GARAGE, WHY IS THIS A ISSUE. WHY ARE MANY JEEP OWNERS HAVING THIS ISSUE. JEEP IS BEING REPAIRED LIGHT FELL OUT, THEREFORE MAKING IT UNSAFE TO DRIVE. I WILL HAVE A BILL FOR REPAIR AT COMPLETION. MY HUSBAND WAS LEAVING OUR DRIVEWAY WHEN THE LIGHT WAS NOTICED HANGING, BEFORE IT COULD FALL OUT IN TRAFFIC.

SUSPENSION, WHEELS
DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AND SUDDENLY I HAD LITTLE STEERING CONTROL AND IT FELT LIKE I BLEW A TIRE. PULLED TO THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY, AND SAW THAT MY TIRE WAS BLOWN AND MY RIM WAS DAMAGED BECAUSE THE BALL JOINT SNAPPED AND THE CONTROL ARM WENT THROUGH THE RIM. THIS WAS ON THE FRONT DRIVERS SIDE AND HAPPENEDED ABOUT 3 MONTHS AGO. A SIMILAR THING HAPPENED TODAY BUT IT AFFECTED THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
ENGINE LIGHT STAYS ON ALL THE TIME. ALSO ABS, TRACTION, EPS LIGHTS FLASH ON INTERMITTENTLY FOLLOWING A WARNING SOUND. THIS PANEL ISSUE CAN OCCUR UPON STARTING THE VEHICLE OR WHILE DRIVING ON BOTH INTERSTATE AND ON CITY ROADS. HAVE BROUGHT IT TO MY MECHANIC THREE TIMES NOW. MY MECHANIC HAS PLUGGED THE UNIT INTO THE DIAGNOSTIC SYSREM TO CHECK ERROR CODES AND IT REGISTERED FIVE RANDOM ERROR CODES SIMULTANEOUSLY WHICH HE FELT WERE UNRELATED TO THE IISSUE, NOR WAS IT POSSIBLE TO HAVE THOSE FIVE RELATED CODES ALL AT ONCE. HE SUSPECTED THAT IT WAS A PANEL MALFUNCTION AND WONDERED IF A RECALL HAD BEEN ISSUED THAT HE WAS UNAWARE OF. BUT HE WENT THROUGH THE PROCESS OF CHECKING CONNECTION AND CLEANING CONNECTIONS ANYWAY. HE SUGGESTED TO BRING IT BACK TO A JEEP MANUFACTURER FOR FURTHER EVALUATION IF IT RECURRED AGAIN, WHICH IT DID! FROM THE COMPLAINTS LISTED, IT SOUNDS LIKE JEEP DOES KNOW EITHER BUT THEY CONTINUE TO CHARGE CONSUMERS FOR REPAIRS THAT HAVE NOT SOLVED THE PROBLEM. OBVIOUSLY DRIVING THE VEHICLE IS NOT SAFE PER CUSTOMERS COMPLAINTS EITHER. PERHAPS SOMEONE IS WAITING FOR A TRAGEDY BEFORE ANY TYPE OF RECALL IS CONSIDERED WHICH IS SAD.
